Your directory structure is just another form of tagging.

  If you are on OSX and the files are properly tagged, I'm fairly certain there is a finder view that would even present it in such a way that it looked like a directory tree.

Nothing wrong with using directories for organization- but you've not provided a reason why this is different/better than tagging files with Metadata in other ways

This.

I don't want a tablet mac. I don't want to run mac apps on my tiny screen or phone apps on my desktop.

  I want my phone to be able to switch to desktop mode with full mac os if I I plug in a usb-c monitor/keyboard/mouse.

A current Samsung Galaxy or iPhone already has more CPU power than my work provided macbook due to its age. I don't need more CPU. My phone only has 16gb of ram, but that would be fine in a pinch. My phone sucks for onboard storage, but that's cause WTF needs a TB on their phone which isn't a desktop.

Samsung Dex was an awesome concept. You could infact run IntelliJ on your phone and it was usable! Not something your going to want to build Linux kernels on all day, but definitely usable. Whatever it is now us pretty lame because they abandoned the most critical features and now it's just your phone/android on a desktop monitor/kb/mouse

For a cyclist and a car to get in an accident, it takes a car ... and a bike.

You made it clear your a cyclist who thinks he's above cars when you tried to make it one sided.

You ride your bike along side huge rolling chunks of metal, plastic and fuel ... then act surprised when it ends with you maimed or dead.

You weren't very bright when you put yourself in the situation to become nothing more then a red smear and bloody tire tracks - and when it does happen... it's always the cars fault?

If you think cyclists don't regularly flaunt traffic laws you don't drive a car. Passing on the right at a stop sign to get to the front of the line, only then to get in front of cars in traffic and slowing them down. Trading a turning lane as their own skip to front of the line. Ignoring signs and lights because it takes 'stopping and starting is hard'. It's not all cyclist, but every sane cyclist I know will be happy to tell you of the idiots they've rode with doing stupid illegal stuff.

When the driver of a car fucks up and makes a mistake, they have a metal cage around them designed to absorb impact. Your bike dents the car.

When a cyclist fucks up, that spandex and nylon day glow shirt just end up mixed into to the smear.

You really need to think about that. Doesn't matter if the car driver is right or wrong. You still end up dead. And your attitude makes me think your more likely part of problem cyclist group than someone that cycles safely.

The car always wins regardless of your logic. Physics don't car about your opinion.

Our VPN software ( just Cisco AnyConnwct ) completely takes over the routing table and blocks all traffic not on the VPN except traffic going to the VPN end point.

This 'hack' is completely, 100% ignored, automatically in our environment. I suspect we're only talking about this dinky little NordVPN type services. Which, BTW, are spying on you and you PAY for the privilege to let the 3 letter acronym spy on you.

Replacement electronics aren't really that hard to find. Even modern recent cars have aftermarket parts that can be used.

You don't see any 10 year old cars rebuilt because they are barely out of warranty and are still running fine. The technology is vastly superior in that respect to what it was in the decades you mention.

Between my wife and I we've owned 4 cars from new to at least 20 years old, and a fifth that we sold around 15 years old cause newborn babies and 2 seat convertibles don't really mix, but beyond the water pump it was all original.

You're argument that your new car can't be serviced is bunk, you haven't needed to and if you did, the dealer probably paid for it.

Replaced the ECU in a 1996 Jeep just a few years ago. No there aren't any third party replacement infotainment computers for tesla yet ... because tesla is still fully making them.

I have historical held the belief that Palestinians were the ones irritating Isreal and Palestien is lucky Isreal hasn't wiped them off the planet. They have the military to easily do it until the rest of the middle east jumps in if the US doesn't.

HOWEVER, my wife and her family are Jews and my sister-in-law has always followed and supported Isreal ... until the Gaza raid.

There is pretty strong evidence that the Gaza attack was not just allowed, but even engineered by Isreal in order to set the stage to wipe the Palestinians off the face of the Earth using the attacks and kidnapping as an excuse. Given Isreals history and past tactics, that seems to entirely fit their MO, counter intelligence... they happen to have some skills there ...

If true - that doesn't justify Palestinians attacking Isreal civilians, kidnapping and killing them ... that is still flat out, 100% wrong.

But it's not possible at this point to sit back and only blame Palestinians.

The entire region has been fighting itself like rabied dogs for THOUSANDS OF YEARS. No one involved is innocent and even if we all shook hands right now, they'll be multiple generations of hatred that will have to leech away before any peace can happen.

You are entirely disingenuous by acting like Isreal is innocent and the good guy here who has been wronged. That's bullshit. They are all indoctrinated with hatred towards their neighbors starting at birth.

As long as you keep making it us against them when you all live right next to each other, you will continue to live in a war torn sithole while the rest of the world moves on and feels sorry for you.

I don't hate Jews because I don't want Palestinians killed any more than you could say I hate Palestinians because I don't want Jews killed.

It's your shitty prejudice attitude that causes this shit to continue.

YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.

What the fuck is wrong with your mind that makes it so not wanting some to die makes them hate others? That's some of the most ignorant fucking logic I've heard in a while.

Why is your only solution to kill people? Again, you are EXACTLY what the problem is. Indoctrinated prejudice that drives you to fight something you don't even understand.

It's not unique to Isreal, it's the entire region. You probably just happen to be Jewish and blinded by history.

And all other usages of speech, the DICTIONARY DEFINITION of the word, and how it's used in the real world ... all of that doesn't mean shit because you decided the only thing ever relevant at all is in a legal context?

You've made a lot of posts on this article calling people idiots, but you're really the only one here that doesn't grasp the language and communicates like an ignorant idiot.

Imma bet $10 you don't actually understand what idiot means either.
